Greater Charlotte Area Jewish Community Study, 1997

Sample Notes:
The data were gathered from 744 individuals in households with one or more Jewish individuals via a telephone interview survey. It is estimated in the published report that there are 10,640 people (about 7,760 Jews) living in 4,000 Jewish households. The sampling universe included Jewish households located in all of Mecklenburg County including, Charlotte, Matthews, Mint Hill, Pineville, Huntersville, Cornelius, and Davidson. The sampling procedure was a combination of random digit dialing, a distinctive Jewish name sample, and a Federation list sample.

Study Notes:
Weighting procedures were used so that the Distinctive Jewish Name interviews resembled the RDD interviews in terms age of the household head, intermarriage rates in the samples, and the number of telephone numbers belonging to each household.
